Abstract
A new and distinct Narcissus plant named ‘Inbal’ particularly characterized by 10 to 15 flowers per stem; white flower; flower diameter 54-57 mm; length of outer perianth segment: 24-27 mm; width of outer perianth segment 21-23; and having mild fragrance.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species of the claimed plant: Narcissus tazetta.
Variety denomination: Inbal.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of a Narcissus plant, botanically known as Narcissus tazetta L., ‘Paperwhite’ group, commonly known as daffodil and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Inbal’.
The new cultivar originated from a cross made in a controlled breeding program in Bet Dagan, Israel. The female parent is a Narcissus variety from a proprietary breeding line designated ‘1959/4’ (unpatented). The male parent is a Narcissus variety from a proprietary breeding line designated ‘66/18/7’ (unpatented).
‘Inbal’ was discovered and selected by the inventors Dorit Sandler-Ziv, Herut Yahel, Avner Cohen and Har'el Yon, as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross in a controlled environment in Bet Dagan, Israel.
Asexual propagation of the new cultivar by either separation of bulblets, bulb chips (twin scaling), or bulb crossing (scoring) was first performed in 1995 in Bet Dagan, Israel and has demonstrated that the combination of characteristics as herein disclosed for the new cultivar are firmly fixed and retained through successive generations of asexual propagation. The new cultivar reproduces true-to-type.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be basic characteristics of ‘Inbal’ which in combination distinguish this Narcissus as a new and distinct cultivar:
-
- 1. 10 to 15 flowers per stem;
- 2. white flower;
- 3. flower diameter 35-40 mm;
- 4. length of outer perianth segment: 17-19 mm;
- 5. width of outer perianth segment: 18-22 mm, and
- 6. mild fragrance.
‘Inbal’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype of the new cultivar may vary significantly with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity, and daylength without any change in the genotype of the plant. The following observations, measurements and values describe the new cultivar as grown Bet Dagan, Israel under conditions which closely approximate those generally used in commercial practice.
Plants of the new Narcissus cultivar ‘Inbal’ differ from plants of the female parental cultivar, ‘1959/4’ (unpatented) in the following characteristics: 1) ‘Inbal’ has a stronger stem than ‘1959/4’; 2) ‘Inbal’ has better overlapping of sepals than ‘1959/4’; and 3) the fragrance of the flower of ‘Inbal’ is not as strong as ‘1959/4’. Plants of the new Narcissus cultivar ‘Inbal’ differ from plants of the male parental cultivar, ‘66/18/7’ (unpatented) in the following characteristics: 1) the flower size of ‘Inbal’ is smaller than ‘66/18/7 ’; 2) the strength of the flower of ‘Inbal’ is stronger than ‘66/18/7’; and 3) the fragrance of the flower of ‘Inbal’ is not as strong as ‘66/18/7’.
Of the many commercial cultivars known to the present inventors, the most similar in comparison to ‘Inbal’ is cultivar ‘Ziva’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 3,366). The following table is a comparison between the new variety ‘Inbal’ and ‘Ziva’, as grown under the same conditions:
TABLE 1 | ||||

The accompanying photographic drawings illustrate the overall appearance of the new Narcissus showing the colors as true as is reasonably possible with colored reproductions of this type.
The first photograph shows an ‘Inbal’ plant in its entirety as a potted plant with several inflorescences, 2 months after planting of the bulb.
The second photograph shows a close-up of an ‘Inbal’ inflorescence, 2 months after planting of the bulb.
Natural growing conditions of the new Narcissus in Israel in a typical Mediterranean climate are as follows:
- Planting: End of September through beginning of November in medium to heavy soil, pH 6-8. Planting material: bulb offsets, 8-12 cm in circumference size.
- Growing: 5-6 months in winter in night temperatures of 0-10° C., and daytime temperatures of 8-20° C.
- Flowering: 45-60 days after planting from mid-December through mid-January.
- Bulb flowering size: >10 cm.
- Bulb filling and maturation: 2-3 months (mid-March to end of May) in night temperatures of 8-16° C., and daytime temperatures of 16-30° C.
- Bulb harvest: In June, after leaf yellowing.
- Bulb curing: 2-3 weeks in well-aired shed at 20-35° C.
- Bulb sorting and strorage: Round bulbs >12 cm. (marketing size for cut flower and pot-plant production).
- Shipping and storage: 25-30° C., 60% humidity, for 2-6 months, under well-aired conditions.
Offsets <12 cm=propagation material, storage: aired shed. - Forcing: For cut flower and pot-plant production: Pre-treatment of bulbs: bulbs stored in 25-30° C. should be transferred to 9-13° C. for 3-4 weeks prior to planting.
- Planting: In well-drained, pH 6-7 sterilized planting medium.
- Growing temperatures: Night: 13-17° C., day: 17-23° C.
- Flowering: 25-40 days after planting (temperature dependent).
- Propagation:
-
- Method.—Star cutting or cross-cutting bulbs of size >16 cm from mid-July through mid-August.
- Storage.—Aired shed, 25-30° C.
- Planting.—In October.
- Harvest.—June, at the end of the growing season, bulb size 6-12 are harvested for use as propagation material.
